Isolamento do Histoplasma capsulatum de animais silvestres no município do Rio de Janeiro

Abstract: INTRODUÇÃOO isolamento do Histoplasma capsulatum de animais silvestres e domésticos naturalmente infectados tem sido utilizado como método complementar na determinação da distribuição geográfica da histoplasmose indicando a existência de fontes comuns de infecção aos homens e animais em determinada região.Várias espécies de mamíferos pertencentes às ordens dos roedores, canídeos, felídeos, marsupiais e quirópteros são suscetíveis a esta infecção fúngica 1,7,8 , mas somente os quirópteros parecem participar ati… Show more

“…The fungus has been isolated from soil in different geographic areas, suggesting that H. capsulatum microniches exist at these localities and could be acting as the source of infection for animals and the local human population (19). The high similarity observed among the H. capsulatum strains isolated from animals and soil at the same locality favors that hypothesis.…”

“…Especificamente, procurou-se verificar a veiculação de fungos com potencial zoonótico a partir de fezes de morcegos, correlacionar a inter-especificidade entre fungos e as espécies de morcegos e verificar se órgãos de morcegos constituem fontes de H. capsulatum. (BHI) acrescido de 5% de sangue desfibrinado de carneiro, e enriquecido com 10 g/L de glicose e 1 g/L de L-cisteína 15 . As culturas foram incubados a 25º e 37ºC, respectivamente, por um período de 15 a 20 dias, podendo estender -se até 40 dias 16 .…”
